Hawkeye Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 A nice band of big, fluffy dendrites moved through Cedar Rapids an hour or two ago. My total is currently at 2 inches.

Tom Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Nice big dendrtites falling...snow accumulating everywhere. Feels very festive out there. Roads are extremely slick without any residual salt on the roads....close to 1/2" and about 1 mile visibility. This snow reminds me of the many powdery systems we had lasy year.

Geos Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 1.5"+ amounts have fallen underneath the heaviest band. Probably about 0.3" here so far.

Meichel Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 @Meichel - Snowing at Burlington, WI, so it should not be long now. Nice band setting up near the state line.Just drove from Lake in the Hills to Deer Park and back. 90 minute round trip. Municipalities being stingy with salt thus far. Literally saw 5x as many tow trucks as salt trucks. Most of the roads are sheer ice. Quentin Road closed south of Lake Cook Road. Good times! Edit: hardest snow I saw was in Deer Park. Grass isn't close to covered IMBY Quote On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 0.6" here so far. Grass is like half covered up - blades wise. Should be able to get to an inch with this first piece of energy. Hoping the second piece of energy makes it through as well.

Maxim Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Maybe 0.3" here in Libertyville.... Just some bad luck I guess being in between two heavier bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I can tell roads are slick here, just by looking at the people going about 15 mph down the street. Looks like one more shot at moderate snow before scattered light stuff the rest of the night. Models depicting slightly higher amounts in extreme southern WI were right!

Andrew NE Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 I ended up with 2.2" here at millard in Omaha. Not to bad with how unorganized the snow was earlier this morning. Anything in November is a bonus in NE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
educatorjen Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Andrew... I agree it was slow going at First. I didn't even think it was going to cover the grass at first. The roads were really slick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew NE Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Yes things got messy real quick once it got dark out. Roads are slick, but not near as bad as Tuesday morning this last week. The city has seemed to get there act together from that disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Some light snow showers happening now. Just enough to slicken the side roads up again. Journeyed up to Kenosha today and the ground up there is definitely whiter. Snow piles around too. A little snow manged to hang on through the day.
